Sometimes during daytime a white spot is visible only in the sky or any other bright region which is only visible on blinking repeatedly and fades on stoping blinking and goes off in 5-10 minutes.It hence behaves like an afterimage.So is it an afterimage which is formed on moving from dark area to bright area and is it normal.

Floaters are usually nonpathological and you will have to learn to omit them. However please get your fundus examination done by an ophthalmologist first.
